Senior Hamas terrorist Ghazi Hamad said over the weekend that one of the fruits of the October 7 massacre was the world’s willingness to recognize a Palestinian state.
In an interview with Al Jazeera shortly after announcements by France, the UK, and Canada confirming their intention to recognize a Palestinian state, Hamad boasted about the benefits of the October 7 massacre. It should be noted that Hamad left Gaza for Lebanon weeks before the October 7 attack.
“The first thing is that it brought back the Palestinian issue,” he elaborated. “Why are all the countries recognizing Palestine now? Before October 7, was there a country that dared recognize a Palestinian state?”
“Now, the fruit of October 7 is what spurred the whole world to open their eyes to the Palestinian cause,” he asserted.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry posted a clip from Hamad’s interview, stating: “Don’t let terror collect its reward.”
